Staatsburgh NY, June 4, 2011

Catskills in the background remind us of home


The Hudson River narrowed today 


Saw this little waterfall as we passed Highland Falls 


West Point


When Pollepel Island came into view, you could see ruins of what looked like a castle. I was excited to look it up and get the history.

Turns out this 6.5 acre's of rock is not only interesting to look at, but has an interesting history.

Ruins in the water around the island

Front of castle where "hardhat" tours are given

Look for the red channel marker
New York deer outside our window - it was rooting in the mud at low tide
